$8 Billion in Higher Health
Costs Every Year
Reduces Access to Care

Increases Costs for All
SB 525 will result in higher health insurance premiums and higher costs for state and local governments.
Fewer Health Care Jobs
SB 525 will reduce employment opportunities statewide as providers are forced to cut back services or close.
Treats Workers Unequally
SB 525 excludes millions of essential workers.
